RL #1 The Twins are five! Les jumeaux ont cinq ans!

Hey all I hope this Sunday finds you great and that you had a great weekend with your friends and family!

On this special Sunday the twins turned five! A big step for them and for us, a step that reminded me of my C-section five years ago, of that twins pregnancy and all its questions and insecurities we’ve been through never losing hope and love for our lovely boys and their future!

I’m also pretty pleased to be back on my blog and writing words as it’s been quite a roller coaster past months, running after time between work and kids as you all mum must have also felt, and non mums of course ! Time is just flying too fast.

This is why last summer I promised myself to get more organized to be able to and try to succeed in every thing I’m passioned about, including my blog and social medias platform, maybe to publish less but definitely to publish better content, like this first post, named « RL » for the « real life » new category I’m willing to grow thanks to so many sweet messages from you guys here and there willing to know more about us!

I’m so happy I have such a sweet and supporting community like you by the way guys, I’m very grateful for it and once again want to thank each and every one of you that took and takes time to comment, like or simply write us, it means the world to me!

So back on the twins birthday, this year was special as they decided everything!

I mean I asked them and they choose a crocodile theme (so easy isn’t lol) and we did the cake together, when since they were board it was all mommy choices and cake buying hahaha.

I’m very happy with what we’ve done for the decor, lots of green, chocolate balloons and crocodiles pinatas had the kids go crazy and running all over my place throwing balloons outside windows for kiddos of the streets who were not part of the bash.

A very intense but joyful moment we all appreciated.

Speaking of « presents », I’m not a « toy » mom lol and I encourage people who are willing to make presents for twins on their birthdays to buy them books, something they love and never two presents so that they learn to share with each others.

Every before birthday we try to do clean up with their toys and I try to explain Roman and Andrea the importance of giving back.

This said, I will display the decor pictures below, any questions is welcomed guys and once again, thanks for sticking with us and welcome on board to the newbies!

Awww thank you so much! They absolutely are book worms and I started at a very young age telling everyone not to buy them too many noisy toys but just one or two (wood and organic paint appreciated ;)) and BOOKS. I can tell you it makes a difference now 🙂 xo

Age 5 was such a huge milestone for my daughters. They excitedly showed everyone that they were ONE WHOLE HAND years old!! lol. And I love your idea of only asking for one gift so that they learn to share. Brilliant.

Haha way too cute and clever! A whole hand indeed! Thank you for your comment and yes people do think they need to buy twice in case of present when naturally twins share everything as it is their philosophy from creation and for life 😉 xx
